Infamous Murders in the Eastern United States (eBook)

This edition profiles and documents some of the Eastern United States most infamous abductions, assassinations and law enforcement related murders. More pointedly, in most of the chapters, you are transported to the actual killing site where the homicides occurred.

The images and accompanying profiles offer a descriptive account and follow-up aftermath providing an important understanding into the far-reaching effects of each crime. For criminals still living, their current incarceration location is provided.

The captured snapshots portray visual testimonies of extinguished lives removed by acts of violence. Crime scenes often revert back into unremarkable landscape or unassuming buildings over the ensuing years and decades. Several have altered little since their moment of infamy. Many are passed daily by pedestrian and vehicular traffic unaware of a location's unique significance. The following are portrayed in this edition:
